New Orleans Saints sign LB Austin Johnson, CB Dion Turner to futures contracts
At least they are defensive players!
********************************************************* The New Orleans Saints added two more players to futures contracts Monday signing linebacker Austin Johnson and cornerback Dion Turner. Turner (5-11, 194) spent the final three weeks of his rookie season this year on the Dolphins practice squad. He also spent time with the Packers during training camp. Johnson (6-2, 240) was signed as an undrafted rookie free agent by Baltimore after the 2012 draft. Johnson visited with the Saints leading up to the draft.

I want bigger corners!
Someone like Amerson: David Amerson, CB, North Carolina State, NFL Draft - CBSSports.com - NFLDraftScout.com |
Re: New Orleans Saints sign LB Austin Johnson, CB Dion Turner to futures contracts
Amerson looks pretty good sizewise an 4,59 is a decent time in the 40.

Well, I hope these are two of those unconventional finds/unpolished gems that the Saints have a knack of finding. :mrgreen:.

Probably just camp bodies... filling up the roster for the bigger offseason allowances. |

You don't find gems if you don't do a little digging. :smile:

Yeah, they are probably longshots but didn't we all say similar things when we acquired DLP, Quddus, Bush, Mack, Tom Johnson, Galette, Ivory, PT, Moore, and Morgan? I don't think our front office views many players as just camp bodies anymore. We have a lot of camp bodies that ended up making the 53. |
Re: New Orleans Saints sign LB Austin Johnson, CB Dion Turner to futures contracts
Good. Keep bringing guys in. Have to shotgun approach it to find talent. It's not just going to show up at the front door.

Yeah, you're right, but that is what these two will end up being in all likelihood - anything else, and they're beating the odds. Johnson was immediately signed to a 3-year $1.4M contract, so it was clear from the get-go that that Saints wanted him in some capacity or another, since he was under contract with the Calgary Stampeders at the time. |

Glad to see they are real active because in my opinion we have a lot of players that have to go we need new blood on our defense no question about it.
